-Headline of the day-"Scott Walker Believes He's Following Orders from the Lord."

You ever notice how people who think God's telling them what to do are complete screw-ups? And have you ever noticed these same people are never told by God not to do things they want to do? It's almost like they're just making shit up to justify ideas that everyone thinks are really bad.

Anyway, Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker is one of those guys. According to the report, Walker -- who is the son of a Baptist preacher -- "said that God has told him what to do every step of the way, including about what jobs to take, whom to marry, and when to run for governor."

This reminds me of an old saying: people who think they're talking to God are praying, people who think God's talking to them are schizophrenic. (The Progressive)
